why ?

Last week we went to a shooting trip in the old city. The trip was such a success.


It happened when we were taking shots of an old traditional house between trees; one of my classmates came and asked me if I have an extra film. I did have one. Each of us had to hand in 4 developed films on Sunday, including at least two from that trip. I asked her how many films she spent till now, she said two. So, I apologized and told her that I need my film. She smiled politely and went. It may be a spare film for this trip but including the two films I had photographed so far, I'll be still missing one film on Sunday. If she was the same, she may go and buy one after the trip, she had plenty of time till Sunday to photograph one film and develop it. But for me, the only place that sells this kind of black and white films is miles and miles far from my house, and I didn't want to endure the pain of going there for the second time in the week. That was how I had thought.


Two days later in the photo lab, I was developing my 4 films, and so was she. I knew that she developed 5 excellent films so any remaining feel of guilt inside me was gone. However, it came back when I started drying my films. One of them only had 4 printable pictures! I had taken the shots of that film the same way I did with the other 3. It had been developed in the same tank with another film, which came out very good, so surely there had been nothing wrong with chemicals. I checked the expiry date of the film and it was alright. So, why my fourth film came out like this? Was it because I had refused to give it to my classmate? But, god, she has 5! Maybe, back then, she had felt so inspired and had been to take extra great shots if only I had given her the film but simply I hadn't? Or maybe it's the mere chance? But how come, while there had been not a single logical reason for the film to be damaged?

If anyone knows why, please let me know.

first 5 Hiragana & Katakana

Today, I completed the first 5 letters (or better named, sounds) of each of the Japanese hand writings Hiragana and Katakana. These 5 are the simplest, they represent the vowels (a, i, u, e, o) in English with slight differences in pronunciation. Although my Japanese hand writing maybe recognized by native Japanese as elementary school writing, but still, you can't say that it doesn’t look not cute!!

Semster Break!!! = ^ > ^ =

Haaaaaaaaaa ...

It's the end of my first semester of my first college year. Today I had my last final exam in room M-155. I went straight to the room. I know exactly where it's, I had three tests in the same room before. Actually, now I have enough experience to tell where any room is just by knowing the number, I can tell in which floor and which building the room is!

Coming to think of it, during my first 2-3 weeks, the situation was completely the opposite and extremely funny. I used to set off to classes before at least 15 minutes of the starting time, so I can 'search' for the classroom without tension, however, I rather arrived late! Also, I used to go to the interior design section and roam around there for long time before I realize that I’m in the wrong place. Some people started to think that I’m an interior design student because they often met me there, while my section, graphic design, was on the completely opposite side of the building! I think it was going to be much easier if the college provided freshmen with hand maps of the campus.
But still, they were amusing exploration adventures specially when with friends. The campus was like a wide jungle for us to discover its secrets. I remember how happy we were when we found the GYM. We started taking a lot of photos using our cell phones, and the next day my friend brought her digital camera and we took a lot of photos in the gym, our classrooms and other classrooms and lecture halls that we had never studied in!

******************

- Eh... I say, we are searching for an hour now, and everyone we ask seems to be giving different directions... are you sure that there is a gym in this college? Maybe they all are just lying!!
- How come 10 people will lie to us about the same thing on the same day!? At least one of them would tell us the truth!! .. Just keep going, we have to find it, WE HAVE!
-now I remember, I have a class after 30 minutes and it's my first time to attend this class. I have to start searching now We may continue the 'gym expedition' later....
-ah... just Waite, see that sign there? We didn't come here before... something is written on that sign!
(We get closer...)
-'fitness room’? Is this supposed to mean gym? But it is an empty 6ft x 3ft passage... no way it is!
-maybe it's behind this door? The sign is in the middle of the empty passage, but the door has nothing beside it. (By then, we already know that every door in our college has the function and the number of the room written beside it)

(We open the door)
-huh... toilets, with baths!! I think this is the gym's toilets... but where's the gym itself!?

-LOOK! There is another door on the other side ... maybe the gym!?

- (we both praying) please god, please... we want a proper gym... we need it!

(Open the mysterious door... craaaaaaack!)

- (in one voice) THE GYM!!! Thanks god!

******************

Three similarities between my campus and Hogwarts Castle:

#1-in Hogwarts, it's impossible to know where the stairs will lead you.

-In my campus, for at least the first 2-3 weeks, it's impossible to know where the stairs (and elevators) will lead you, too.

#2-in Hogwarts, there are so few people who you can depend on to have correct directions.

-in my campus, virtually no one will ever give you correct directions!!

#3-in Hogwarts, doors that you don't know, may hide adventures.

-in my campus, if it was your first 2-3 weeks ,and you lost the way to your classroom and reached a wrong one, and if you were too unlucky to open the door and find a class going on there and about 26 people staring at you, well, this is also an adventure but of another sort!

*******************

This break will last for 2 weeks, then we will be back to have new courses, new professors, and new friends, too. I hope the next semester will be as great as this semester, and even better.
